The Patrick Madrid Show: September 26, 2024 – Hour 2

Today, with special guest host Cale Clarke, we tackled a compelling issue out of the Diocese of San Diego. They’ve just banned homeschool groups from using parish property, while allowing rentals to non-Catholic schools. With homeschooling on the rise—up 130% in San Diego—it’s causing tension. Should sacramental prep be parish-bound, or can it be home-led?

  • Joe – Started at a catholic school and had to leave. My wife and I now homeschool. I think there are points on both sides we need to look at. (39:06)
